There is a place in France.....

I have survived my first day in France. I have learned a lot in the past couple days.

1. It's amazing how you've come to realize how little you know the language you have been "studying" for the past five years. So when traveling, always travel with cute men that speak really well French, and know how to flirt.
2. It is true, the French smoke A LOT. I thank my lucky starts I have a family that doesn't smoke. Everywhere you go, fumer, fumer, et fumer. Anytime you catch a whiff of something that smells other than smoke, breath in deeply.
3. When going to the beach you don't see as much breast as I thought. Don't get me wrong i did see at least one lady barring it all, at least they were nice like all the paintings we see.
4. The men here bark at you, no not whistle, bark! Really loud.
5. When you extract 100 dollars you really are extracting 139 dollars, amazing how that works isn't it?
6. The French do shower and they do have nice teeth. Shocker right? Oh and I learned they are known for perfume.
7. They drive really fast and there is no warning sign that the little green man on the post is turning red and you better move your butt if you don't want to get ran over.
8. Your mom was right, you should not wear flip-flops. They leave terrible tan lines.
9. No one tries to pickpocket you in any shape or form. I mean don't be stupid, but you don't have to be paranoid.
10. We eat a whole bunch of bread, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and every snack inbetween.
